Starting a business is one of the most rewarding and exciting career moves you can make. Of course, it can be intimidating too, but we’re here to help all entrepreneurs.

Crossing the t’s, dotting the i’s

A new business requires you to master new skills and face unexpected challenges. At the very least, founders need to get to grips with the legal and regulatory challenges associated with founding and running a company, assemble an effective team, prepare an engaging pitch and present that pitch to the right people.

The 5 P’s: proper preparation prevents poor performance

New founders need to plan, but to plan effectively they need access to clear and concise information.

Floww’s mission is to connect great startups with venture capital. The new series of Floww Guides will provide aspiring entrepreneurs with the information they need to get their ideas off the ground and find their ideal funding partners.

Floww Guides will cover the basics. How do you set up a company? How can you start fundraising effectively? But it will cover more technical questions too. How should you value your company and how can you defend those valuations to investors? What are the EIS/SEIS tax schemes and how do they benefit entrepreneurs?

The Floww team will continue to develop and update new and existing content for our platform users, leveraging our experience in the venture capital space and collaborating with experts. This will enable entrepreneurs to address the challenges startup companies face in the ever-evolving world of business.

In the near future, the Floww Guides series will tackle the best way to market your new business, offer an introduction to best accounting practices and dig into the world of effective design.
